Abstract
2-(1,3-Diaza-2-cycloalken-2-ylamino)quinazolines and substituted compounds are compounded into local and topical compositions for the treatment of viruses.
Description
2-(1,3-Diaza-2-cycloalken-2-ylamino)quinazolines and substituted quinazolines have been disclosed as having in vitro antiviral activity in Belgian Pat. No. 815,196. However, there is no assertion or suggestion that these compounds have in vivo activity.
It has been discovered that these compounds have significant in vivo antiviral activity as well.
In accordance with this invention, there is disclosed a method for treating viruses in a mammal, said viruses selected from the group consisting of influenza, parainfluenza types 1, 2 and 3, Coxsackie A-21 and rhinovirus, which comprises administering to the mammal an antiviral effective amount of a compound of the formula: ##STR1## and the non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, wherein X and Y are the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, alkyl of one to six carbon atoms, inclusive, alkoxy of one to six carbon atoms, inclusive; R is alkyl of one to six carbon atoms, inclusive; and n is 0 or 1.
A further aspect of the invention is a pharmaceutical composition adapted for local or topical use comprising a compound of the formula: ##STR2## and the non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, wherein X and Y are the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, alkyl of one to six carbon atoms, inclusive, alkoxy of one to six carbon atoms, inclusive; R is alkyl of one to six carbon atoms, inclusive; and n is 0 or 1, in association with a pharmaceutical carrier.
The antiviral compounds are readily prepared by the methods of Belgian Pat. No. 815,196, see for example, the description from page four to the start of page thirteen.
Once prepared, the compounds are formulated into pharmaceutical compositions adapted for local or topical administration. The compositions of the invention are presented in solid forms such as powders and freeze-dried preparations as well as in liquid forms such as drops, sprays, mists and aerosols.
Each form used herein contains a concentration of the compound of FIG. 1 as the essential active ingredient such that each unit dose contains an effective amount of the essential active ingredient for antiviral activity. In general, an antiviral effective amount of the compound of FIG. 1 is from about 0.01 to about 50 mg., preferably from about 0.1 to about 20 mg.
These pharmaceutical compositions are particularly useful when applied topically to the oral and related areas such as nasal passages, sinuses, larynx, trachea, bronchi and bronchial tubes. Although the precise mode of antiviral action of the compounds is not known, they demonstrate unexpected pharmacological activity in inhibiting, combatting and destroying viral proliferation and developments.
The delivery mechanism of these compositions can be through the inhaling of a powder manually or through a device such as a Spin-Haler used to deliver disodium cromoglycate, Intal. When using the latter device, the powder can be encapsulated. When employing a liquid composition, the drug can be delivered through a nebulizer, an aerosol vehicle, or through any device which can divide the composition into discrete portions, for example, a medicine dropper or an atomizer of some type.
The compositions are formulated by conventional means. Solid forms of the compositions of the invention, in addition to their concentration of essential active antiviral ingredient, may contain inert materials usually employed in preparing solid pharmaceutical composition such as, for example, binders, excipients, carriers, lubricants, diluents, buffer salts and like inert materials.
The essential active ingredient is mixed with conventional ingredients such as starch, lactose, acacia, methylcellulose, and functionally similar materials as pharmaceutical diluents or carriers. Capsules are prepared by mixing the compound with an inert pharmaceutical diluent and filling the mixture into a hard gelatin capsule of appropriate size.
Another use of these solid formulations is to use as a base for the liquid formulation.
Liquid formulations, particularly those adapted for nasal drops, sprays, or mists, are prepared in a conventional manner. The essential active ingredient, preferably in a small particle size, for example less than about five microns, is dissolved or dispersed in a small amount of aqueous vehicle or hydroalcoholic vehicle or ethanol or aliphatic alcohol such as oleyl alcohol. Thereafter the solution or suspension is placed into a nebulizer of known types such as a mechanical nebulizer for administration to the infected subject.
As stated previously, the compositions are those adapted for inhalation into the oral and related areas. Compositions for inhalation are of three basic types: (1) a powder mixture preferably micropulverized with particle size, preferably from about 1 to about 5 microns; (2) an aqueous solution to be sprayed with a nebulizer; and (3) an aerosol with volatile propellant in a pressurized container.
The powders are quite simply prepared by mixing a compound of the formula with a solid base which is compatible with lung tissue, preferably lactose. The powders are packaged in a device adapted to emit a measured amount of powder when inhaled through the mouth.
Aqueous solutions are prepared by dissolving the compound of the FIG. 1 in water and adding sodium chloride to provide an isotonic solution and buffering to a pH compatible with inhalation. The solutions are dispersed in a spray device or nebulizer and sprayed into the mouth while inhaling.
Suspensions or dispersions can be prepared in the convenient manner and dispersed by appropriate devices. Acid addition salts are preferably employed so as to become solubilized when contacting the target tissue.
Aerosols are prepared by dissolving a compound of the FIG. 1 in water or ethanol and mixing with a volatile propellant and placing in a pressurized container having a metering valve to release a predetermined amount of material.
The liquefied propellant employed is one which has a boiling point below 65° F. at atmospheric pressure. For use in compositions intended to produce aerosols for medicinal use, the liquefied propellant should be non-toxic. Among the suitable liquefied propellants which may be employed are the lower alkanes containing up to five carbon atoms, such as butane and pentane, or a lower alkyl chloride, such as methyl, ethyl, or propyl chlorides. Further suitable liquefied propellants are the fluorinated and fluorochlorinated lower alkanes such as are sold under the trademarks "Freon" and "Genetron". Mixtures of the abovementioned propellants may suitably be employed. Examples of these propellants are dichlorodifluoromethane ("Freon 12"), dichlorotetrafluoroethane ("Freon 114"), trichloromonofluoromethane ("Freon 11"), dichloromonofluoromethane (" Freon 21"), monochlorodifluoromethane ("Freon 22"), trichlorotrifluoroethane ("Freon 113"), difluoroethane ("Genetron 142-A"), and monochlorotrifluoromethane ("Freon 13").
The term "unit dosage form", as used in the specification and claims, refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for human subject and animals, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical diluent, carrier or vehicle. The specifications for the novel unit dosage forms of this invention are dictated by and directly dependent on (a) the unique characteristics of the active material and the particular effect to be achieved and (b) the limitations inherent in the art of compounding such an active material for use in humans and animals, as disclosed in detail in this specification, these being features of the present invention. Examples of suitable unit dosage forms in accord with this invention are capsules adapted for insufflation, dropperfuls, aerosols with metered discharges, segregated multiples of any of the foregoing, and other forms as herein described.
An effective but non-toxic quantity of the compound is employed in treatment. The dosage of the compound used in treatment depends on the route of administration, e.g., intra nasal, intra bronchial, and the potency of the particular compound. A dose schedule for humans of from about 0.1 to about 20 mg. of the essential active ingredient administered to the oral cavity is effective for antiviral utility. A dose schedule for humans of from about 0.1 to about 5 mg. of the essential active ingredient administered to the nasal passage is effective for antiviral activity. The dosage to be administered can be repeated up to four times daily.
The administration of the compositions of the present invention to humans and animals provides a method for the effective treatment of viral infections. The preferred treatment course is therapeutic. The process can be used for the treatment of the following viruses: influenza, parainfluenza types 1, 2 and 3, Coxsackie A-21 and rhinovirus.
